AESTHETIC THEORY - THEODOR W ADORNO KARTONIERT ...

Theodor Adorno (1903-69) was undoubtedly the foremost thinker of the Frankfurt School  the
influential group of German thinkers that fled to the US in the 1930s  including such thinkers
as Herbert Marcuse and Max Horkheimer. His work has proved enormously influential in sociology
philosophy and cultural theory. Aesthetic Theory is Adorno's posthumous magnum opus and the
culmination of a lifetime's investigation. Analysing the sublime  the ugly and the beautiful 
Adorno shows how such concepts frame and distil human experience and that it is human
experience that ultimately underlies aesthetics. In Adorno's formulation 'art is the sedimented
history of human misery'.
